‘My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks’ Set for September

Following up 2013′s successful movie venture My Little Pony Equestria Girls, Screenvision has teamed up with Hasbro Studios and Shout! Factory to bring My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks to over 300 theaters across North America beginning September 27. Listings and links to ticket sales can be found at mlpeg.com.

In Rainbow Rocks, Canterlot High School is hosting a musical showcase, and Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Fluttershy plan to perform as their new band The Rainbooms. But when The Dazzlings, a new girl group, arrives at CHS and convince everyone to turn the event from a friendly showcase to a Battle of the Bands, tensions mount between the competing acts. A reformed Sunset Shimmer realizes the Dazzlings might be after something more sinister than being named Best Band. The Rainbooms call on Princess Twilight to restore harmony to their world and help them perform a musical counter-spell and save the school.

I wasn’t too impressed with the first Equestria Girls, but the music was pretty good. This movie seems to be musically centered, so it may be better than the first movie. I still hope one day we actually get a full MLP:FiM movie.
